You will not regret it. The best book of all times. You fall so deep in love. You will forget any book you have read before.Butterbescotch wrote: ↑06 May 2011, 01:32
In case you don't know here's the blurb.---"It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife."
So begins Pride and Prejudice, Jane Austen's witty comedy of manners--one of the most popular novels of all time--that features splendidly civilized sparring between the proud Mr. Darcy and the prejudiced Elizabeth Bennet as they play out their spirited courtship in a series of eighteenth-century drawing-room intrigues. Renowned literary critic and historian George Saintsbury in 1894 declared it the "most perfect, the most characteristic, the most eminently quintessential of its author's works," and Eudora Welty in the twentieth century described it as "irresistible and as nearly flawless as any fiction could be."
"The wit of Jane Austen has for partner the perfection of her taste."
--Virginia Woolf
I'm currently reading it and I'm a bit tense reading a classic. Wish me Luck! :]

Follies and nonsense, whims and inconsistencies do divert me, I own, and I laugh at them whenever I can.
